ford_boy4l please stop playing with my testicles Donating Members 357 Member For: 13y 2m 16d Gender: Male Posted 08/11/11 11:56 AM Share Posted 08/11/11 11:56 AM (edited) went for a run this arvo and heard a bit of an interesting noise, spooled up fine first couple of times I put my foot into it and then gave it a good squirt and as it hit full boost made a sort of wierd noise and for half a second wondered if it had overboosted... now every time it gets real high on boost it seems to make the same sound :newrussian:??? goes fine if it doesn't spool too hard but still pretty concerning. heard about people warping the actuator plate or something? apparently costs about $300 bucks to replace? either that or tune it back to standard, take it back to the dealers and hope for the best ... FFS!only other thing I can think of is I had the tune done when I had 98 in the tank, but got a bit stingy today and just put general unleaded for the first time since the tune... wouldn't have thought the tune would play much havoc on stock parts, or that I'd see much diff from 98ron to standard unleaded! might have to ask bruce about it...

High performance car = 98octane. Shell V-Power, BP Ultimate or Vortex and nothing else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BF6 Member 333 Member For: 14y 10d Gender: Male Posted 08/11/11 09:16 PM Share Posted 08/11/11 09:16 PM Caltex is not a true 98. BP is prob the best u can get. And who knows if p100 is really 100 coming from a united. It's prob 98 or 99 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
